Prepping for ASCO 2023

The  ASCO Annual meeting begins two weeks from today! This year I will attend virtually. I'll miss interacting with so many amazing researchers and getting to network with some outstanding advocates in the Advocate Lounge. 

You will catch me tweeting from the Live sessions and retweeting attendee's tweets for those sessions which are On Demand. Once the On Demand sessions are over they will become available for me to watch online so I can tweet or summarize them on this blog.  

Be sure to follow #gyncsm, #ASCO23 and ASCO Featured Voices, to be announced shortly by ASCO.

Since I am registered, I was able to set up an agenda using the Annual Meeting Program Guide https://meetings.asco.org/meetings/2023-asco-annual-meeting/299/program-guide.

 Here is my schedule so far: 

Friday 

 
Saturday 

 

Sunday

Monday 


 

There are also some sessions that are not specifically about gynecologic cancer that I've added to my agenda. 

On Demand session Improving Cancer Outcomes by Addressing Social Determinants of Health

On Demand Developing Sustainable Cancer and Aging Programs

On Demand Poster Discussion -Prevention, Reduction and Hereditary Cancer

There are a number of published abstracts/ articles in the ASCO 2023 Educational Book, which you can view at https://ascopubs.org/toc/edbk/current . You might want to check out  (e10035)  Patient Advocates and Researchers as Partners in Cancer Research: A Winning Combination if you are an advocate or researcher wanting to engage advocates in your research.

Be sure to check back during and after the meeting for blog posts on the topics / sessions I mentioned above. 

Are you an advocate who is presenting or on a panel? Let me know so I can be sure to watch.
